Just try some research Ray.

"White folks was in the caves while we was building empires," he said. "We built pyramids before Donald Trump even knew what architecture was. We taught philosophy and astrology [sic] and mathematics before Socrates and them Greek homos ever got around to it. Do some cracker come and tell you, 'Well my mother and father blood go back to the Mayflower,' you better hold your pocket. That ain't nothing to be proud of, that means their forefathers was crooks".

But don't just listen to what he says, research some of his race baiting actions. It's a long list.

That’s not why they’re criticizing Sharpton. Big anti-white racist (and antisemite, too). And THIS is who is speaking at a funeral against racism?

Sharpton's racist tirade yesterday at the funeral of a career criminal was sickening, but not surprising.

When you said it took courage, is this what you were talking about? Or kneeling and asking for forgiveness?

I may have misunderstood your post and would like clarification.
I would not be asking for personal forgiveness, but recognizing the despicable history and asking them for patience as we work for change.

I'd be happy to kneel to anybody who was a slave during the 1800's.
